How it feels

A nostalgic, vibrant, and tightly challenging platformer that feels like a lost 90s classic brought to life with crisp pixel art and smooth animal-powered abilities.

What players say

Players confirm this is a deliberate Donkey Kong Country clone, calling it "DKC 4 in spirit" and praising its tight controls and pixel art. Some find the auto-scrolling sections unfair, but most say the challenge is fair. It takes about 5 hours to 100%.
